Sorting and Organising Within Acrobat

Hi, We often have system generated PDF output files with over 100 pages in each file. This causes us some difficulty as we need to organise the pages within the file in different ways to make best use of the information contained there.

How do I organise or sort pages by key words or reference numbers within acrobat? Or do I need to purchase a 3rd party add-on to do the task?

Many thanks

You might try doing this using the Pages Navigation Pane, this panel is undockable so you can more it anywhere within the Acrobat application window.
You can also reduce the size of the thumbnail view of the pages within the pane to see more content.
Next, you can search on key words within the document and then move the pages as necessary within the Pages Navigation Pane. By holding the Shift key you can select multiple pages move them to the appropriate location within the document as well.

Hi, is there an automated feature which allows you to reorgainse the pages so that the first page becomes the last, the second becomes the second to last, and so on?
